Actually, "Garbage Canal" seems to be the name of this particular canal.
I suspect "garbage" here is a Khmer word pronounced 'gar-ba-ge'.. Hopefully, one of the Khmer language expetts can enlighten us with regard to its meaning.

I may be going to hell in a bucket,
but at least I'm enjoying the ride.

I know that canal well, used to go past it a few times a day. It's got some stinky water in there of course as it's on the outlet side of the 598 dike pumping station. It has quite a bit of vegetation around though which looks kind of exotic. Here's a picture of the area in 2000 and 2019. The only green patch in the middle of the bottom view, southwest of the mushroom cloud is where the last decent swamp is.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
